Release plan - v18.x Maintenance LTS #737
Comments
|
@juanarbol do you still plan to prepare a release for tomorrow? No worries if you can't, but I'd like to know so I take time to do it. |
|
@targos do you still have time to pick it up (maybe delayed until Weds/Thurs)? I reached out to @juanarbol by other means and it seems he is unavailable this week. |
|
I'll do it |
|
I'm still preparing v18.x - aiming for Thursday (8/11) release date. |
Preparing v18.x is still ongoing - right now, it seems I am blocked by backporting nodejs/node#44056 (I may try myself) because the rest of the merge conflicts/test failures build on top of that. Depending on if I can get that done in the next ~2 days, I may just work with @ruyadorno to get the giant 18.x release out next week for 8/23. |

Sounds good to me @danielleadams 👍 |
|
@nodejs/releasers We have a release target of 2022-09-20. However, the Security Release (v18.10.0) will be issued on 2022-09-22. Would be ok to postpone the regular release to at least 2 days after the Security Release (24/09)? That would be better for me since I'm part of both releases. |
|
@RafaelGSS I think we could push it back a week, or even skip this next minor release in favor of the security release. As long as commits from main get pulled in before it goes LTS, I think it's fine. |
I can't push it a week, because I won't be able to do any release after 29 (until the middle of Oct). I think I can release it on 27/09 cutting commits from 23/09. What do you think? |
|
@RafaelGSS oh, I see. I think that's fine because the next target date is 04/10. I can also pick it up for 27/09 if you want with all the recent commits, and then we can see if we should push the 04/10 one out 1 week too. |
|
Hi! Will there be a release between now and the LTS version? Would the LTS release actually only contain a version number bump commit? |

Can you update the schedule, maybe also with planned releases like the 19 release schedule? |
|
We will probably discuss and update the schedule in our monthly meeting next week. |
I see new version already for node 19, new version of 18 was scheduled for yesterday, so I hope 18.13 will be released soon. |

Hello @targos, |
|
Yes, it will be part of it. |
TODO: Re-enable these tests in Node.js v18 once the fix for this Node.js test runner bug is published in a v18 release: nodejs/node#48845 The Node.js v18.19.0 release is scheduled for 2023-11-28: nodejs/Release#737
|
Can we please land nodejs/node#50186 on the upcoming v18? This is a bug fix. Because of this we are unable to move to node 18 and have to use node 16. |
|
The Node-API team also needs nodejs/node#50991 in v18.x in order to unblock nodejs/node-addon-api#1409. Could you please add it to the upcoming v18 release? |
|
Hi Folks, Node.js v18 is in maintenance, implying we no longer perform scheduled releases to this release line. However, a release would only happen if one of these criteria is met:
The suggestion to all Node.js users is to upgrade to Node.js 20 as soon as possible. |
|
Now, that we have 18.x security release planned. can we land nodejs/node#50186 on v18 now? |
|
Turns out they don't apply cleanly. So, I filed a PR: |
|
May we please have nodejs/node#51801 in the next release? It will help us with our next Node-API release. |
|
It will depend on timing. nodejs/node#51801 needs to go out in a current release first before being eligible for LTS, and usually be in a current release for two weeks. The next current release looks likely to be Node.js 22.0.0. |
|
If there will be another minor release of v18.x, it would be very nice to have nodejs/node#52762 included. The patch applies cleanly. |
